Clock Making Supplies

Clock mechanisms provide the essential components for creating custom timepieces on wood, ceramic, or any surface up to specific thickness limits. Each Walnut Hollow kit bundles a quartz movement with matching gold hands and self-adhesive numerals, eliminating the guesswork of coordinating components. The movements shaft length determines compatible surface thickness, critical information when working with anything from thin hardboard to substantial wood rounds.Gold-finished hands and numerals maintain visual consistency across your design, while self-adhesive backing simplifies positioning without drilling or specialized hardware. Quartz movements run on a single AA battery (not included) and operate silently, making these suitable for bedroom and office environments where ticking would prove distracting. The movements threaded shaft mounts through a center hole, secured from behind with included hardware.Walnut Hollow offers an 11-inch diameter pine surface specifically sized for their 3/4-inch movement, providing a ready-to-finish foundation for painted, stained, or woodburned designs. However, the real versatility emerges when you apply these mechanisms to unconventional surfaces, vintage vinyl records, salvaged wood, decorative plates, or custom-cut materials. Match the movement shaft length to your chosen surface thickness, and you can transform almost any flat object into a functional timepiece.
